Black Lion Records is going to release the album in 6 Panel digipak on June 12, 2017. The last track from the album, "Evening Star" — which features the legendary Dan Swanö as the guest guitarist and pays a homage to Edgar Allan Poe — is exclusively streaming on DreadCentral, which can be found at this location Quote from the band: 'Evening Star' was composed by Eddie Risdal all the way back in 1996 when we went under the name of 'Permafrost', but never got any further than some demos. We gave the song a heavy makeover for this album but the essence is as it were. As with most of our songs from that time we used lyrics from the dark master Edgar Allan Poe. It sticks out a bit from the rest of the album with its rock'n'rollish riffs but in our humble opinion we think it really has stood the test of time. We also left some space in the song for Dan Swanö to put his 'signature' on the work he did with the album, as we did with 'Onward!' on our previous album, and he came up with this absolute gem of a guitar solo. If someone told us back then that 20 years from now Dan Swanö is going to do a guest appearance on this we probably would have imploded. To us there's a bit of symbolism to have this fairly old track on a brand new album. On our self titled album we had mainly songs from the past and only one brand new, 'Onward!'. On this one it's the opposite. Eight brand new compositions and only one from the past, 'Evening Star'. Over The Past!

Entitled Neverending Trail of Skulls, the album is set for international release on August 1st via Xtreem Music. The album was recorded by Umberto Furlan at Black Sun Studio between October 2016 and February 2017, with a later mastering by Daniel Lowndes at Resonance Sound Studio and topped off by the artwork of Matteo Zanella. Gravesite was formed back in 2014 by members from other bands like Haemophagus, Undeed Creep, and Cancer Spreading among others, and released a demo entitled Obsessed by the Macabre. This led to their signing with Xtreem Music, who released their debut album Horrifying Nightmares... in July 2015, which was formed by nine tracks of old-fashioned death metal in the best tradition of bands like Autopsy, Grave, Death, and Carcass. In the meantime, check out the title track to Neverending Trail of Skulls at Xtreem Music's Soundcloud HERE and also at the label's official YouTube channel HERE.

Last week Irish metalheads, Stormzone were shooting a new music video for a track from their latest album, "Seven Sins". Acclaimed director Alex Perisson, responsible for many award winning videos from Europe's top metal bands, had signed up to direct the video, in a concept that involved recording footage in a disused asylum, against the advice of local experts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpgiwABTINY As far as we can ascertain, the band and entire production crew encountered some kind of problem during the shoot. We have not been able to contact anyone involved since the date of filming. The attached news report contains footage found at the scene, which some viewers might find distressing. Anyone with information about the whereabouts of the band or crew should get in touch immediately. Occult death metallers Unaussprechlichen Kulten premiere the new track "Sacrificio Infanticida" at Decibel magazine's website. The track hails from the band's highly anticipated fourth album, Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X), set for international release on June 2nd via Iron Bonehead Productions. Hear Unaussprechlichen Kulten's "Sacrificio Infanticida" in its entirety exclusively HERE. For nearly 20 years now, this Chilean cult has built a commanding canon of eldritch death metal darkness. From their early demos to later splits and especially their preceding three full-lengths - not least of which, 2014's critically acclaimed Baphomet Pan Shub-Niggurath - Unaussprechlichen Kulten have explored the furthest reaches of primordial dread and ancient mysticism, all through pure 'n' authentic Metal of Death. But now, they've transcended all past accomplishments with the monolithic Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X). Verily a summation of the Unaussprechlichen Kulten aesthetic to date - songwriting that slithers through the slime with a preternatural grace, execution that's barbaric and crusted in mud and blood, production that plumbs the foulest ends of the sonic spectrum - Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X) possesses an immediately engaging aura of demonology and witchcraft. In fact, such themes are central to Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X), as explored in the album's HOW 12-page booklet, with liner notes painstakingly crafted by the band. "This Chapter is inspired by women, the persecution against them by the Holy Office Sacred Congregation (The Inquisition), their essential role in the myth and legend, their place at the witches’ Sabbath, and the profound fear they spread - and still do - in mankind under the concept of Witch." Further, as the band explains, "The ancient pagan cults awarded a leading role to the woman inside the spiritual. However, in medieval Europe, among other things, the exaggeration of the divinity and chastity of the feminine, the exaltation of virginity and motherhood as unique roles for women - the image of the Virgin Mary - create a shadow, a mirror image, an opposite principle. The repression of sexuality and denial of the Soror Mystica incubated a mysterious, dark, and evil female image." Across its taut, eight-song/39-minute duration, Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X) displays an Unaussprechlichen Kulten at their most frighteningly feral and also most devilishly nuanced. The songs' successive slipstreaming surge creates a miasma of blunt-force trauma and hallucinogenic tension; any dynamic and detail the band wish to engage in is delivered with an almost unsettling, paradoxical grace. Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X) takes all the urgency 'n' ugliness of classic death metal and upends into the realm of high art. That assertion is further elucidated by the aforementioned booklet gracing the album, as well as its ominously striking cover. As if their bounty wasn't already overflowing, Unaussprechlichen Kulten here deliver a work for the ages. Bear witness to the next emanation from Keziah Lilith Medea (Chapter X) exclusively HERE, courtesy of Decibel, North America's only monthly metal magazine. The first emanation can be heard at Iron Bonehead's Soundcloud HERE, with the track "Sabbatical Offering." |
